Call for Papers 2016 :: Socio.hu

Space both constructs society and it is at the same time its output.

Socio.hu invites papers for its 2016 English language special issue on the following topics:

  • Urban-rural relationships

  • Effects of development policy on community building
  • Role of food in rural development
  • Gentrification of urban and rural areas
  • Resilience of rural communities
  • Rural and urban heritage in use
  • Rural and urban poverty

The special issue aims at opening space to discuss the different perspectives of sociology, economics, cultural studies, and ecology on the topics.
